So long as you have a form of income that is paid regularly each month you will be eligible to sign up to a medical aid scheme. Health insurance is important if you wish to receive the best possible medical treatment and after care available, as well as avoiding the long waiting times that are a feature of state run health facilities.
Selecting the correct healthcare plan begins with looking at your situation, as well as that of any family you might have. At Spectramed Medical Aid, there are a number of different healthcare plans to choose from, and each one has been designed to suit the circumstances and lifestyles of people from different walks of life. You will also need to consider any long-term or persistent medical problems that you or any member of your family you wish to cover may have. Setting aside some time to consider all of these factors will help you to get an idea as to what level of coverage you need, as well as what you can afford.

This plan is particularly useful for those people that just want to be covered against any major problems that would require a stay or a visit to a hospital. If you are looking for a healthcare plan that offers more, then Spectramed’s most popular healthcare plan is the Spectra Azure, a plan that not only offers unlimited cover against hospital bills, it also offers an extensive range of other health benefits such as dental and optical cover.
